No, sorry Alex but maybe you can stretch that jar to 22 cups? And, then if you're feeling extra thirsty .... there's always the Cohiba Cognac to go with it!

Hasbean does an excellent one called Cuban Serrano (when it's in stock). Next best thing to Blue Mountain, I reckon.

lol, nice one arf!!!! the problem with the cohiba cognac is that it's martell, my least favourite (i prefer hennessy or remy martin)........

but seriously, ?22 for a jar of coffee?

I'm sure that I saw that coffee and that it costs next to nothing in Havana airport...

What a load of bollocks.

There are far better coffee's available in the UK for less that ?5. I say this without even trying it and I will bet a Beheke I am right ...anyone want to take the bet?

Very true! I spent ?65-odd on a 200g bag of Kopi Luwak 6 months ago. It was nice and fruity but I still preferred my Kenyan and Columbian beans! But I had grown up with the latter two which obviously had biased my answer!

I would absolutely refuse to pay ?22 for ajar of coffee. I would even refuse to pay half of that!

I prefer Java as I need a good jolt to start my heart first thing in the morning and have now got turned on to Hot Lava Java at about ?2.75 a pound.

Now call me a cheapskate if you like, but ?22 for a pound of coffee? Aren't we being asked to part with money for the name? The Montecristo is around ?17.50. It would be interesting to have them both analysed to see if there was any difference......

Everything costs next to nothing in Havana airport! Rum is a joke!
